How to Compose a Memorable Melody Music

In the previous section titled Become a Melody Composer I discussed two techniques to make an existing melody into a more memorable melody, but that article begged the question: How do you create the actual melody? How to compose a memorable melody music will address this question. Music melody is defined as a rhythmically organized sequence of single tones so related to one another as to make up a particular phrase or idea. When I first read this, I just said “huh?” However, the definition does bring up some important points. The melody is organized with related tones. A memorable music melody is logical; it’s not just a conglomeration of random notes. There are two main ways of composing music melodies. One way is by starting with a melodic outline, such as the one below, and then adding passing and pickup tones. The second method has no melodic outline. Note: this melody is nothing; I just created it to illustrate the differences between passing and approach notes. This also illustrates that even if you follow the rules you can create dull melodies. Something more that is needed for a melody, an emotional tug, a desire to weep or dance, an element that takes an initiative and intuition that cannot be taught. Or can it?
